driftwood from beach

I found some nice pieces of driftwood from the beach and want to put it in my freshwater tank. Would this be a bad idea since I got the wood from the beach? Is there something special to do to get the salt out? Thanks.

Oh, I bet! When I lived near the shore I loved to walk the beach to see what could be found.
